# Session Preferences sub-tab

This defines session preferences. Often, it is difficult to exist a specific console session without affecting other sessions in the chain. The Disconnect HotKey closes the current active session in a chain. Configuring this hot key is useful when multiple sessions are open, i.e., a console session started from within a console session; or cascaded console sessions. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/763c5fb1-b9af-4ccd-9ad6-cf28ae4cd5a3/Images/Documentation/image-1678817996881.png)
